Speed=15miles/hr       . Eqs-1.... ..Initially
   In vertical circular motion 
Tendency to overturn depends on centipital force
         Mv^2/r.      eqs-2
Here velocity is doubled means now is 30miles/hr
We get the value four times
Correct ans-(b)
Dividing  eqs 2 and 1

F directly proportional to v^2
From F=MV^2/r
And F is tendency to overturn in a circular motion
Therefore on doubling velocity
Tendency to overturn becomes quadrupled
And(b)
